Yep. We can’t do 3 more years of this. The country won’t make it.

Unimaginable.

Tweet of the week @WoodddsJim

This was one of reasons many of us supported Donald Trump. Where has this man gone? Now he’s sending US troops into another Middle East war that will cost us trillions more and precious lives. No wonder he turned his back on me for fighting him to release the Epstein files. What would cause a man to change so much?

I just heard from a source very close to top of the White House that, following today’s shootdown of an F-15, an A-10, and the successful hits on multiple helicopters and other aircraft, the WH is choosing further escalation, including US troops on the ground. This would be madness. I truly hope that someone in the Pentagon or elsewhere can prevent this from happening. If anything was proven today, it’s that Iranian AD is still very capable and very intact. Any US ground operation will be heavily reliant on helicopters and other slow-moving airframes. Despite the assertions of both the Pentagon and POTUS, it is crystal clear that we have not reduced Iranian AD to the point where a ground operation is even a remotely wise decision. Let alone potentially inserting by air and then being exclusively reliant on an air corridor for things such as resupply and CASEVAC. History is replete with examples where this reliance has been disastrous. Further, the hard part would be after troops were on the objective. Our lack of manpower leaves little room for maneuver, and once static (which would be required), Americans will become a stationary target for the entire inventory of Iranian indirect fire capabilities on Iranian soil, and it is a recipe for failure. Simply put, this is not an existential war for the US's survival. It’s a war of choice that should never have happened in the first place, and POTUS should be finding a way out, rather than clumsily and recklessly sacrificing America’s finest.

My God please stop this man because congress and his cabinet won’t!

it’s crazy that 95% of people just want a nice normal life on our beautiful, already abundant planet where they can have their basic needs met and cute experiences with their loved ones and then we have these 5% of evil, narcissistic goons at the top fucking it up for all of us

@liberal_elder @thespybrief Yes . Much of my childhood was spent in England and the change was starting then. Mainly the Indian population it seemed. Going back as an adult it seems so vastly different and inrecognizable. Sad.

My opinion is that the Britain we grew up admiring, the Britain of Western values and civilization is falling and is almost gone. While the rural population may still be Christian, the Cities and nearly the whole of the political elite are Muslim. This unpalatable present is extremely unstable.

@thespybrief My word that took a minute 😮‍💨

@JenNWCbus God’s truth.

@JenNWCbus I read a few articles like this: theconversation.com/jd-vance-is-no…

@JenNWCbus He says( and wrote about) growing ip poor but, if I recall correctly, he lied about it and it was actually a more typically middle class socio-economic status upbringing.

@JenNWCbus Indeed. Given he grew up middle class - so should know better - and is not an intellectual idiot that’s the only explanation.

Reports now that Hegseth oversold the war to Trump and underestimated Iran's willingness to fight back. It's almost as if he's unqualified for his job. Too bad the Senate didn't have confirmation hearings; those would have proven his manifest unsuitability to lead the Pentagon.

Beautiful. Now let’s try and keep it this way.

@RepThomasMassie @TheRickWilson You’re just killing this Twitter game, Massie!

Congratulations AG Blanche. Now you have 30 days to release the rest of the files before becoming criminally liable for failure to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

President straight up fired homegirl just a month after she sat in front of that committee hooting and hollering and acting an ass on his behalf.

Make it stop 😫
